Sugar Cookie Martini
(adapted from Wholefully)
Tastes like a sugar cookie with a slight hint of almond/apricot from the Amaretto. Delicious, but loaded with calories, so save these for a special occasion!
Ingredients:
- Vanilla frosting and sprinkles for rimming the glass... OR... Regular sugar (or green/red colored sugar if you're feeling festive).
Pro tip: Double all the following to serve two drinks out of the same shaker (After all, who wants to drink alone?)
- 1.5 oz Vanilla vodka
- 1.5 oz Irish cream
- 2 oz. whole milk (1/4 cup)
- 3/4 oz Amaretto
- 1 tsp. powdered sugar (can be omitted to drop a few calories if you like)
- Ice
Steps
1. EITHER:
- Rim the glass with frosting/red/green sprinkles. Yes, this seems insane, but the drink really needs this hit of sweetness. So if you choose to not do frosting, at least...
- Wet the edge of the glass with water, then briefly dip it into a plate with sugar on it to rim the glass. Use red/green colored sugar if available for a more festive look.
2. In a cocktail shaker loaded with ice, add the vanilla vodka, Irish cream, milk, amaretto, powdered sugar, and ice. Close the lid and shake vigorously for at least 15 seconds
3. Pour into the sugar or frosting-rimmed glass and enjoy!
